Happy Halloween from the Law Library Staff!

Sample prizes, 3 reusable canvas bags with various Halloween decorations.

It’s a season of spooky spells, find some time to rest your weary skeleton.  There are many haunts and hollows in New England. Roger Williams Zoo offers a jack-o-lantern walk, or you can tour Lizzie Borden’s house if you want something more hair-raising.  

We are all about tricks and treats in the Law School too! Stop by the lobby on Halloween from 11:30 am-1:30 pm to get some treats and see the librarians in wicked costumes.

But more crucially, the librarians noticed another horrific happenstance this year that will require your attention. A series of murders will take place in the Law School. They cannot be prevented, but they can be avenged by finding the killers. It is up to you to use your deductive reasoning to hash out these horrible Halloween crimes.

There will be 4 murders to solve starting on Monday the 28th, one per day, with the last on Halloween. You will receive an email with a link to all the information you need to crack the case. Submit the correct theory at the bottom of the corresponding day’s page and be automatically entered to win the daily prize of a tote filled with treats. Solve all 4 capers by the last stroke of midnight on Halloween night and you will be entered to win the grand prize.

Our staff and faculty are counting on you. Their days are numbered. Can you guess who will be the first to die?
